6.24.09 - Day 47 - Not enough.
Sometimes I feel like I do not have enough time.
I’m not pushing myself enough.
Cutting out sugar, chocolate, carbonation, it’s not enough.
More exercise than I have ever done in my life, is not enough.
Hating the way I look and feel…not enough to push harder?
Today at Zumba I realized that what I am doing is not enough. I know at this point in my game I should have already incorporated extra days of exercise, but with my work schedule it’s hard. My plan was to go to the gym early before work on those days, but between errands, appointments, and sleeping, and a doctor’s appointment tomorrow, it just hasn’t happened. The scale has brought me down this week. My weekly weigh in went unrecorded because I gained a pound. And you know what? Gaining one pound is not that big of a deal. But I hopped on the scale this evening too, and it said I weighed more! ;-( I knwo that I shouldn’t weigh in the evening, because tomorrow morning it will say something different, but still. I am so far from my personal mini goal that it seems like I should change it. I also wanted to get to 150 by next Friday before my mini-vacation, and I was on my way to that…now not so much, that would be one pound per day!!!! I wish that I could become addicted to exercise or that all my cravings would just go away with the snap of a finger, but for me it hasn’t been like that.
I’m gonna keep on truckin, but it sucks.

Attitude is half the battle..and u are gonna keep on truckin..u’ll find success. Measure ur inches…sometimes those move differently than ur scale. Try upping the intensity of ur workout if time doesnt allow u to exercise daily. U are in the right direction…Keep it up!
Wow. We definitely seem to have the same issues going on in our lives. You can do it though. It’s sooooo hard but we can achieve anything if we just try and give 110%
I’m sorry you are down
I will try my best to help you through this. You just have to figure out what is holding you back. Is it really not enough exercise or is it food or is it both? Everyone’s body is different when it comes to losing weight so you just have to find the right exercise and calorie combination that works for you. You will do this. It just may take longer since your schedule doesn’t allow for a lot of exercise time. You just have to remember that there is no way you can start exercising and stop eating unhealthy foods and not improve your health so it will pay off in the long run. Keep your head up!
